23-years-old woman named Sophie
Loader has been confirmed to have been born with uterus bicornis, meaning she
has two separate wombs and this causes her to go into labour any time she is on
her period.
Sophie, a mother of a 2year old boy Chase is said to suffer debilitating
labour pain that lasts up to 72hours during her period.
According to report, she gets struck down by painful contractions every
month which mimic perfectly labour pains, because her second womb fills with
blood – mimicking a full-term baby.
She told The Mirror that the only way she can cope with the pain is through
breathing exercises.
“I’ve been in labour more than 100 times, but only once for real. To say
that it’s a pain would be an understatement.”
“When I was 13 and the contractions started, I had never felt pain like it
and couldn’t understand what was happening to me, it was terrifying – even the
doctor thought I might be pregnant.”
“When I had Chase I was drugged up to the nines for my c-section, so sadly I
can’t compare the pain of real labour to my fake contractions. But I wouldn’t
wish this on any woman.”
“One labour is more than enough,” she said
